Gemini (or whatever google ai) will be all about ads. I’m not adopting this shit. Their whole business model is ads. Why would I adopt a product from a company that only cares about selling more ads?
- Alifatisk 3y agoGoogle One's business model is not ads? I mention Google One because you can access Gemini Ultra through it.
- imp0cat 3y agoAll their services are just a way to get more information about their users so they can serve them ads. Those Gemini queries will be no exception.
- sodality2 3y agoNot true - Gemini looks to be marketed towards companies, where it's far more profitable to just charge thousands of dollars. Ads wouldn't fund AI usage anyway. GPU's are extremely expensive (even Google's fancy TPU's).
- imp0cat 3y agoI find that hard to belive. Ads most probably already funded all the research, development and manufacturing required to produce those TPUs. But we'll see, maybe Gemini will become profitable eventually.

- snapcaster 3y agoAgreed, people continually forget that Google has fundamentally failed at everything besides selling ads despite decades of moonshots and other attempts to shift the business. Very skeptical that any company getting 80% revenue from ads will be able to resist the pressure to advertise
